Rainbow Six Vegas, that is. New info and crisp HD screens.

Hip Las Vegas party-goers like to quote the hackneyed phrase, "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." As if everyone who went either lost their virginity, more money then they'd like to admit, or their cookies.

But when applied to Rainbow Six Vegas, Ubisoft's slick new, next-gen tactical shooter, this phrase turns a new meaning.

The new rappeling feature provides alternate paths.

In Rainbow Six Vegas, due on Xbox 360 and PS3 this fall, international terrorist Irena Morales has amassed an army of mercenaries to besiege America's playground, but her true agenda remains a mystery.

Leader Logan Keller and his team now have one night to bring order back into the heart of chaos before Irena unleashes her ultimate objective. But what they discover will not only change Rainbow itself, but could also tip the balance of power firmly in favor of the terrorists.

Make money while killing terrorists -- the perfect game!

Sin City is burning and the world is watching. What are you going to do? (The short answer is play the freakin' s%$# out of Vegas when it comes out!)
